Impromptu Composition Written by SKCiss Scarboro in the % ‘Recent High Schools’ Contest. None of the contestant- knew the subject until announced at the lime of writing: there was no possible chance to avoid originality, nor did the judge know the name of the school nor writer, and could only announce his decision by the letter “E” by which the paper was desig nated. The writer of composition “E” proved to lie Miss Effie Scar boro, of the O’Neal High school of Cordele, against live contestants from other schools. lady Macbeth’s influence over HER HUSBAN'ND. - A noble character, noble in po tentiality and fruition, domineered over by a superior intellect and will, may Is* forced to perpetrate deeds entirely foreign to his nature. In Duly Macbeth’s influence over her husband, an example of this fact is found. Although many prin ciples necessary to the character of a man who wishes to ‘'do good and not evil all the days of his life are lacking in Macbeth, yet he would surely have been a better man, a nobler soldier, a truer friend, had he chosen for a life-partner a differ ent woman. However, Mneltotb's character is not a character to stand alone. He must necessarily follow. Lady Mac beth {jossesses a stronger will, a sup erior intellect, a startling power of self-control. Fit, indeed, is she to lead. She can plan, scheme, plot and drive Macbeth on to do those things which are the childien of her brain. As a woman, Lady Macbeth’s in fluence is magnetic, powerful. What man is there especially a brave sold ier, who can bear the taunts of the woman he loves? Love certainly existed between this pair, strange as it may seem. Lady Macbeth’s care and tenderness, her desperate speeches, her desire to shield from detection her husband during the banquet, show that as a'wife her in fluence was powerful. For, driven from his awful hallucination by her, he becomes a “man” again. Although her influence is the means of Macbeth’s downfall, yet, we cannot doubt that Lady Macbeth j urges him on to crime and goaf’s I him on to murder in the desire that j he may possess the utmost fruit of his ambition. Her sharp speeches j are only goads to drive him to what j she believes best for him. They come not from a callous nature, but from a steeled will. Her action is like pushing a boulder over a pre cipice; after that one impulse no thing can stay it, and it gathers im petus as it goes. Before the end of her life, how ever, Lady Macbeth’s influenceover her husband,having gradually grown weaker and weaker, ceases. At her death Macbeth is scarcely moved: he seems to look upon it as simply another incident in the meaningless, weary tale of human life. A feeling of sorrow, of regret, a desire that it might have been other wise, Alls us as we view their awful downfall, their dreadful retribution. But in their punishment we see ful tilled the prophecy of Isaiah. 4 4 Woe unto them that put darkness for light and light for darkness, that call evil good and good evil, that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.” One half acre residence lot for sale at a bargain splendidly located.
